  1. Has anyone got any setups they could send to me please for bangers. Me, Trash and Bozz making a come back this season with a new team and couple more old faces that haven't been seen for a few years (or more!) and we haven't got anything left for the game on any pc.

     

    Would have posted in the bangers section but can't until I pay for the membership this week.

     

  2. Andyh,the wisbech godfarther, and the essex gangster welcoming me back...hmmmmm

     

    Mick reaches for the welder and RSJ'S, i will have to use bonnet stays as welding rods....now where did i leave that volvo.

     

    Gents it will good "running" into you both...and good to know you are both still kicking..

     

    is trash still here as well?

     

    lol its SIR to you and dont forget it!

     

    There's a lot of new boys on the block since you departed Mick some are pretty damn decent as well but the odd ones still need a good sorting now and again hence Stus rather lengthy ban lol

     

    Seriously though would be nice to see an old face back in these, at least you will make us current "old" boys feel young again ;)

    im still in a mood i will say that lol

     

    I bet you are!!

     

    You must be the most gutted person this week!! He picked the top 2 horses before and never put the bet on!

     

    100-1 winner and 14-1 2nd!

     

    Just to make you feel even worse £1.00 on the forecast would have returned.....

     

    Straight Forecast: £1146.54

     

    And the tote exacta would have paid.........

     

    Exacta: £2610.90

     

    :o

     

    Great picks tho!!

     

    Mavs son had a quid on the winner as well and had the 100-1 4th place shot as well which was available at 500-1 in the morning! 1/4 of that is 125-1!!

     

    My picks came nowhere really, Southern Vic, Darkness & L'Ami. Had hoped it was going to rain for Southern Vic but it didn't so the ground wasnt soft enough.

  4. How could I forget 3D Stock Cars, had it on the C64 and it was mega, drifitng my Mini looking thing round the tracks. Used to get to play all the games as when we got started with the business the main things we sold were C64, Speccy and CPC464 games so just took the ones home I wanted to try. Used ones for £1.25 each, trade em back in for 50p. Nearly 20 years later and we still do the same business, just the games look slightly (!) better these days lol.

     

    Run The Gauntlet was good (as was the Tv show!) when you could get it to load, you had about 5 different races to do and then the assault course, 9 times out of 10 it would freeze during the 5 minute loading time for the last level!

     

    Good days!!! Many a school holiday wasted from getting up in the morning til going to bed playing a mammoth session of Grand Prix Sim with Stu!

     

    Others I have fond memories of are on the Atari 2600 - Pole Position, Q-Bert & Tutankahmun.

     

    C64... Go Go The Ghost, International Speedway, Talledega, Grand Prix Sim 1 & 2, Kickstart 1 & 2, View To A Kill, Friday The 13th (that was scary when I was little lol), Visions snooker & the cracking Ghostbusters and thought it was mega when you pressed the space bar in the song it said "Ghostbusters!" lol, Powerdrift etc

     

    SNES.... Mario Kart pure class game as 2 player and plenty of tournaments with Stu again in the summer hols.

     

    Remember buying in our first Atari ST and was blown away by the graphics on Tommi Makkinen Rally and even the windscreen wipers worked!! Stunt car challenge was good as well.

     

    Now owned a video game shop for the last 17 years after starting selling games to mates in the playground and then boot sales and cant beleive that the only game I play these days is the bangers on here?! Altho I am doing Prof Layton on my daughters DS atm but it aint the same........

     

    Happy days and would gladly go back to the summer hols and the GPS tournies!!

     

     

     

     

  5. but it was too far over to the left as the car was designed to have an extra brake pedal sat next to it for left foot braking, since thats now banned i cut the mount off and moved to over slightly to where the new pedal had a bit more room.

     

    Why is that now banned Mart?

     

  6. I agree it's over rated now

     

    It's ALWAYS been over rated IMO!

     

    Too greasy so the hits when they come 9 times out of 10 go in sideways as old matey who is doing it puts his foot down for the big one and nearly spins out. Went for a few years and always came away thinking it wasnt worth the effort (and that was before FWD)

     

  7. sort it behind closed doors

     

    To be honest that is what we have tried not to do after being, from reading the screenshots, accused of doing things in an under hand way and doing it "behind closed doors".

     

    If the bans had just been posted without any backup there would have been a major "them and us" thing going on with everyone wanting to know what had happened and perhaps passing judgement that is was just a unfounded witchhunt which is why the shots have been shown to everyone.

     

    We nearly lost ALL of the forum a few weeks ago and VERY nearly lost the entire database (it was bascially deleted) thanks to hackers, it was only thanks to some resourceful thinking and a hell of a lot of work from MC and others that most of it was saved. If the database was totally lost then that would be it for UK Dirt, perhaps you may now realise why we have had to go down this path.

     

    Believe me no one is condoning anything, simply put UK Dirt is refusing to be bullied and is trying to be as out in the open as much as possible to keep the members informed as much as we are able to.

     

    We have already lost our head admin who, due to this, feels that UK Dirt is no longer something he wants to be a part of. He puts one hell of a lot of work into it behind the scenes for no return and gets this sort of treatment, that is why we have gone down this route.

     

    UK Dirt has had enough, it is purely run for the members and it is these members that we feel have a right to be party to anything that is a threat to their environment.

     

     

     

     

  8. To get more cars in your offline game you need to change your drivers text in the folder you want to use. Open up the unlimiteds folder and add some of these entries in....

     

    Make sure you spell the chassis name exactly and make sure you keep the last "end" otherwise you will get nascars.
